Map<K, V>(IMap<K, V>)

package haxe.ds

Available on all platforms

Map allows key to value mapping for arbitrary value types, and many key types.

This is a multi-type abstract, it is instantiated as one of its specialization types depending on its type parameters.

A Map can be instantiated without explicit type parameters. Type inference will then determine the type parameters from the usage.

Maps can also be created with [key1 => value1, key2 => value2] syntax.

Map is an abstract type, it is not available at runtime.

Methods

inlineclear():Void

Removes all keys from this Map.

inlinecopy():Map<K, V>

Returns a shallow copy of this map.

The order of values is undefined.

inlineexists(key:K):Bool

Returns true if key has a mapping, false otherwise.

If key is null, the result is unspecified.

inlineget(key:K):Null<V>

Returns the current mapping of key.

If no such mapping exists, null is returned.

Note that a check like map.get(key) == null can hold for two reasons:

1. the map has no mapping for key
2. the map has a mapping with a value of null

If it is important to distinguish these cases, exists() should be used.

If key is null, the result is unspecified.

inlineiterator():Iterator<V>

Returns an Iterator over the values of this Map.

The order of values is undefined.

inlinekeyValueIterator():KeyValueIterator<K, V>

Returns an Iterator over the keys and values of this Map.

The order of values is undefined.

inlinekeys():Iterator<K>

Returns an Iterator over the keys of this Map.

The order of keys is undefined.

inlineremove(key:K):Bool

Removes the mapping of key and returns true if such a mapping existed, false otherwise.

If key is null, the result is unspecified.

inlineset(key:K, value:V):Void

Maps key to value.

If key already has a mapping, the previous value disappears.

If key is null, the result is unspecified.

inlinetoString():String

Returns a String representation of this Map.

The exact representation depends on the platform and key-type.
